Portrayals[]
Profiles[]
Crash Bandicoot[]
- Manual (US)
"Not as pushy or driven as his boss, Dr. N. Brio has relegated his position to chief henchman of Dr. Cortex. Actually, it was N. Brio who created the Evolvo-Ray, but his lack of self-esteem let the other (more twisted) Mad Scientist take the credit."[11]
- Manual (PAL)
"Not as pushy or driven as his boss, Dr. N. Brio has relegated his position to chief henchman of Dr. Cortex. Actually, it was Dr. N. Brio who created the Evolvo-Ray, but his lack of self-esteem let the other (more twisted) Mad Scientist take the credit. Maybe we'll see a battle of the Docs..." [12]
Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back[]
- Manual
"Doublecrossed by Cortex, this one-time partner in crime will now do anything to stop Cortex and his fiendish plans, regardless of the consequences."[13]
- Dimension Publishing strategy guide
"You know, you're hanging around your local coffee shop, trying to look cool for the babes and you think you've got a chance of attracting one of the locals when she points out those hideous bolts protruding through the sides of your head. Oh sure, you thought about having them surgically removed, but there was never time, the insurance didn't cover it and there was a time, when you were much younger, that it was cool to hang paper clips from them... ah, youth. In addition to his mirror-unfriendly exterior, N. Brio has a hard time with this whole good vs. evil thing. Last time, he was on Cortex's side, this time, he is trying to destroy Cortex before he enslaves the world. Come on beaker-boy, make up your mind already!!! Is he or isn't he? Only his blacksmith knows for sure."[14]
Crash Bash[]
- Manual (NTSC-U)
"He's the poster boy for mad scientists everywhere. This beaker clanker is back in partnership with his old colleague, N. Cortex and is ready to make his own mark on the world. Like Cortex he is armed with a laser and he is also a master of long tank shots."[15]
- Manual (PAL)
"DR N. BRIO – the megalomaniac who refuses to give up"[16]
- Prima strategy guide
"Years ago, it was Dr. N. Brio who created the Evolvo-Ray, but due to lack of self-esteem, he let Dr. Cortex take the credit. He once assisted Crash in stopping the fiendish plans of his mentor, but now appears to have returned to his evil ways."
Crash Village[]
- In-game
"A flawed but talented villain who is the mastermind behind Cortex's dastardly “Evolvo-Ray.” The very first assistant to the arch-villain Neo Cortex, N.Brio and his creation are responsible for creating Crash Bandicoot during the early animal mutation experiments."[17]
Crash Bandicoot: On the Run![]
- In-game
"Doctor Nitrus Brio's mutagen form. Angry, green and has a fondness for spandex."
